Description
FDA has not yet classified the drug into a specified pregnancy category.

Mode of Action

Enalapril, a prodrug of enalaprilat, competitively inhibits ACE from converting angiotensin I to angiotensin II (a potent vasoconstrictor) resulting in increased plasma renin activity and reduced aldosterone (a hormone that causes water and Na retention) secretion. This promotes vasodilation and BP reduction.

Interaction

May potentiate hypotensive action w/ diuretics, other antihypertensives, TCAs, nitrates or anaesth. Concomitant admin w/ lithium carbonate may cause lithium toxicity. Increased risk of renal impairment w/ NSAIDs. May increase hyperkalaemic effect w/ K-sparing diuretics and supplements.

Pregnancy Category Note

Pregnancy May cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman; use of drugs that act on renin-angiotensin system during second and third trimesters of pregnancy reduces fetal renal function and increases fetal and neonatal morbidity and death; when pregnancy is detected, discontinue therapy as soon as possible Hypertension in pregnancy increases maternal risk for pre-eclampsia, gestational diabetes, premature delivery, and delivery complications (e.g., need for cesarean section, and post-partum hemorrhage); hypertension increases fetal risk for intrauterine growth restriction and intrauterine death; pregnant women with hypertension should be carefully monitored and managed accordingly Lactation Enalapril and enalaprilat have been detected in human breast milk; because of potential for serious adverse reactions in breastfed infant, including hypotension, hyperkalemia, and renal impairment, advise women not to breastfeed during therapy
